The Reveals: The 2009 Round Masterlist!

*drumroll* Here's the reveals! You can now see who wrote/drew for you. Please make sure you've left a comment for your gift since someone took the time to create something for you. :D

You may now repost your fic and art on your journal/archive/site. If you are posting your fic on your own journal or archive and want us to link to your journal/site for future readers, we're happy to do that. For long fic and art especially, we're encouraging you to send us new links either to your journal or an archive. We encourage everyone to go to Walking the Plank. :D You may comment to the masterlist with new links or email us at snarryholiday [at] gmail [dot] com.

Over the next few days, I'll be adding in all the author/artist names on IJ/LJ/DW.

On the masterlist below, I've used everyone's IJ names unless you've told me otherwise. If you are known by something else on LJ and want that name included as well, don't be shy, and let me know. :) Additionally, if there are any mishaps with the masterlist, speak up.

Waxing nostalgic and offering gratitude

The third round of snarry_holidays has officially come to a close! In a little over an hour, we'll post the final masterlist so you can finally see who wrote/drew for you. :) I've really enjoyed this round and it was especially wonderful getting to know some newer authors and artists, as well as seeing some familiar folks again. ♥

Thank you so much to everyone who participated as an author or an artist. We had a surprising number of dropouts this year, and thus there was a lot of under-the-wire regifting taking place. Thanks for everyone who was so supportive about allowing us to regift and working with us. We're especially grateful for those people who got their gifts in on time. ♥ Thank you to the pinch-hitters who stepped in: countesszero, who came in early on and was worked into the fest; ivylady, who generously allowed us to gift her pinch-hit to the comm; and psyfic, who stepped in at the last minute and was an absolute dream. ♥ Everyone's patience, perseverance and enthusiasm has been lovely.

jin_fenghuang volunteered this year to let us use her website for hosting longer fic and art. She helped with modding duties and spent many hours conquering the beast that is html and coding. She participated in the fest herself and has left many wonderful comments. Thank you so much, dear. You've been an absolute rockstar.

chiralove is always a fabulous co-mod and can be counted on for support in handling frustrating situations and effectively proofreading long fics at superhuman speed. *hugs tight* You deserve many martinis and chocolate and Snarry porn!

carpet_diemon also co-modded with us this year, helping in the arduous task of matching assignments, as well as answering emails and proofreading, even with injured hands! Thank you so much for your diligent work, hon!

shyfoxling saved our collectives asses by helping to proofread many stories. She was thorough and fast as lightning. Thank you so, so much.

Thank you to sev1970 for providing the coding for the first round-up and for her incredible enthusiasm.

To everyone who has commented and rec'd (and provided us recs), I can't promise you my firstborn - because I have no intentions to have squabbling children (one could say I'm hardwired like Snape in this way *g*) - but I can thank you profusely, so: THANK YOU!!!

Last notes :)

Hi everyone,

With great apologies, I've finally posted the last Weekly Wrap-Up. :) There are links to the first two, as well, if there's any last minute reading you want to do. The reveals will go up tomorrow at 3pm ET, along with some thank-yous. After then you may post your own fic on your journal and make thank-yous, etc.

We will still be collecting recs for the Snitch, so if you happen to make any after the reveals (or have recently), let me know. :) If you have anything to ask or bring up, you can email us at snarryholiday at gmail dot com.

Thank you everyone so, so much for making this a wonderful round. We wish everyone a Happy New Year, and hope that you will continue Snarry-ing. *g*

That concludes posting!

Now all the gifts have been posted, unless I've overlooked something. *g*

Please email us at snarryholiday [at] gmail [dot] com if there are any issues.

I'll be posting a Weekly Wrap-Up tonight and tomorrow a masterlist of all the fics/art will go up. Everyone will remain anonymous until the final masterlist is posted on January 2. Until then, please remain anon. Don't answer comments or hint at someone's identity until we're done. :) We want people to have time to catch up a bit.

Remember to let us know if you've made any recs or seen any. :) You're welcome to comment with those on this post or email us.

Thanks so much for everyone's participation! This has been a great round and a privilege to mod. ♥
